You can prevent the resources of a service group from being brought online by disabling them. You can use the Veritas Operations Manager console to disable all the resources of one or more service group.

You must have one of the following privileges on the service groups to perform the task:

Administrator privilege on the parent cluster of the service groups

Administrator privilege on the service groups

Administrator privilege on the cluster host of the service groups

Note:

All the resources of a service group must be taken offline before they are disabled. Before you disable the resources of a service group, you must open the configuration of the cluster that it belongs to.

In the Veritas Operations Manager console, do one of the following to locate the service groups:
